The fixtures are run using teams of three persons. Depending on the number of teams, there are two or three rounds where each team competes against all other teams. Once all the rounds have finished, the semi-finals and finals decide the winning team and runner-up for that season.
Ipswich Table Tennis runs a local tournament each year in August, after the Winter season. This is a closed tournament, which means only members of the Ipswich Table Tennis Association can enter any of the competitions within the tournament.
Competitions within the tournament include A Grade singles, B Grade singles, C Grade singles, A Grade Doubles, B Grade doubles, C Grade doubles.
The singles competitions are run on a double knock-out draw. The doubles competitions are run on a knock-out draw.
On occasion, Spinners team up with other clubs to have a social-tournament with other clubs. Players are notified regarding an expression of interest to play in these interclub competitions and add their name to the sign-on sheet presented near to the time these competitions are run.
The format changes depending on the expression of interest. Two teams of three or four persons compete against a team from another club. When playing at another club, travel to those other clubs can include long distances (up to 100 km). Players are notified regarding the location of the other club prior to signing up.
